Before Lisa and I even met we had both been collecting various things, and we had both done Arts & Crafts shows. But as a pretty much full-time business, we started with selling antiques and collectables and junque at flea markets in southwestern Ohio and southeastern Indiana in June of 1986. Then in September of '86 we set up at our first actual antique show, and also at our first Arts & Crafts show together with just hand-stenciled and block-printed notecards and greeting cards, and a few other small crafts. So, we are officially celebrating(?) our Twntieth Anniversary in the business this September. Of course, by May of 1987 we had opened our first shop, so that 20th will be coming up in the spring.
For all of our Marquette area friends, the WLUC-TV6 Fall Harvest Arts & Crafts Show is coming up on September 22nd, 23rd & 24th - we'll be sending out a mailing in a few days.
Then on the following Saturday (September 30th) is the Crafts Day and free park admission at Copper Falls State Park outside Mellen, Wisconsin.
We hope to see you at one of these shows, or some of the others we'll be at every weekend - see our full schedule in an earlier post, and I'll update as we book more shows.
